I love that your son comes by to see her every day! My eldest lives a thousand miles away, and my youngest is in college. But there is nothing like a boy and dog reuniting, no matter the age or the time apart. It's incredible. The dogs get hugs before I do! And my youngest frequently drops to his knees on his way to class to give full-body hugs to random big dogs. Afterward he may or may not introduce himself to the dog owner, depending on how late for class he'll be. I'm hoping that's how he'll meet the love of his life. But there is certainly no rush!

“I'm a liberal, but that doesn't mean what a lot of you apparently
think it does. Let's break it down, shall we? Because quite frankly, I'm
getting a little tired of being told what I believe and what I stand
for. Spoiler alert: not every liberal is the same, though the majority
of liberals I know think along roughly these same lines:
1. I
believe a country should take care of its weakest members. A country

that the ACA has problems, that a national healthcare system would
require everyone to chip in, and that it's impossible to create one that
is devoid of flaws, but I have yet to hear an argument against it that

This is a fabulous salad and will be great to serve during hot weather.

I found cucumbers on sale 3 for 1.00 so I made this for the shelter. I will give you the recipe in which you use 4 cucumbers.

Bring 2 cups of white vinegar and 1-1/2 cups of sugar to a boil along with 1 tablespoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of celery seeds and 1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes. Boil it until the sugar dissolves then turn off the heat.

Throw in 2 cups of ice cubes and let them melt.

Thinly slice 4 cucumbers, 1 large red onion and 1 large green pepper.

Pack them tightly in a jar.

Pour the liquid over them and close the jar. These will keep for a couple months in the fridge. I tucked in some garlic cloves and fresh dill as well.
